In the shadow of the city lights, we danced like we were free
But the cracks in the pavement whispered secrets to me
With a cigarette kiss and a stolen glance, we were chasing dreams
But the night grew heavy with the weight of silent screams
We were echoes in the dark, fading memories
A love that burned too bright like a tragic symphony
We were written in the stars, but lost in destiny
Now we're just echoes, echoes of you and me
You were my California sunset, golden and divine
But the highway stretched too long, and we ran out of time
Your promises were velvet, soft against my skin
But the dawn revealed the truth, where love begins to thin
We were echoes in the dark, fading memories
A love that burned too bright like a tragic symphony
We were written in the stars, but lost in destiny
Now we're just echoes, echoes of you and me
In the rearview mirror, I see the ghost of what we were
Driving through the night, every mile's a blur
The radio's playing our song, a bittersweet refrain
But the melody's a haunting, a reminder of the pain
We were echoes in the dark, fading memories
A love that burned too bright like a tragic symphony
We were written in the stars, but lost in destiny
Now we're just echoes, echoes of you and me
In the silence that follows, I hear your voice so clear
But it's just the wind whispering what I fear
We were echoes, echoes, now we're just echoes
Of a love we couldn't keep, in a world that wouldn't let us growmore
